Al woke up in jail cell with his hand hog tied behind his back along with handcuffs.
"Hey, let me out! Let me out of this cell you old fat fuck!" Al shouted in anger
Sheriff Arn looked over at Al and scoffed. Al kicked and uncontrollable fury.
"Let me out. Now!" Al shouted
"Keep throwin that temper tantrum. Won't do ya any good." Arn said as he took a sip of his coffee.
"Look man, I'm on a mission from the Gods themselves." Al said
"Oh, the Gods?" Arn asked in curiosity
"Yeah. You don't recognize me?"
"No."
"I'm Al. The train robber, you may have heard of me."
"What!? That can't be true."
"It is true. Lyri herself brought me back to life to hunt down my former gang."
All blood drained from Arn's face.
"Hunt down your former gang." Arn repeated with a slight tremble in his voice
"Yeah. Royer, Renme, and Tonn. Now let me out of here so I can go hunt them down. C'mon they couldn't have gotten far." Al said
"In ten years I'm sure they've gotten pretty."
"Ten years? What are you babbling about old man. It ain't been ten years."
"Um. Yeah, you've been dead for ten years. Why do you think you woke up in a bar and not the burned down old brothel?"
"The brothel burned down?"
"Well since you were dead, you probably don't know what happened after they killed you."
"What happened?"
"After they killed you, they blew up the whorehouse."
"Those bastards. Is that why I'm nothing but a skeleton under these clothes?"
"Yup."
"Well where'd they go?"
"Your old pal Tonn ran off with that Scepter thingy and has gone on a string of robberies across the kingdom. Royers a druggy a few towns over and Renme. Well I don't know about her. My guess is they did her in at some point."
"Well come on then. Untie me and we can go hunt them down together. I know a lawman like yourself would love to gun down some of the worst outlaws to ever plague this region."
"I ain't lettin you out of here. You'll try and kill me."
"I promise I won't."
"I don't trust an outlaw such as yourself. Especially not one that killed several of my deputies."
"Fine, don't let me out then. Can't wait to see what Lyri does to you when my mission goes incomplete."
Suddenly a faint whisper could be heard by Sheriff Arn and him alone.
"Help him. He needs it." The voice said
Arn lightly shook his head in an attempt to brush it off. Although it came back again even louder to him this time.
"He needs help. Help him."
On the second time he recognized a faint angelic chorus in the background. The sheriff then realized that everyone else had frozen. He looked at his coffee to see the steam was still instead of flowing.
Ditto for Al, the only other person in the jail with him.
"What's going on?" Arn asked himself
Then suddenly appearing before him was Lryi herself.
Arn dropped to his knees with enough force to nearly break them.
"Oh Goddess. Have I displeased you in any way?" He prayed as his entire body trembled.
Lyri looked down upon him with a death stare.
"Help him." She said
She then vanished. As soon as the trance ended Arn quickly stumbled to the cell and unlocked the cell. He then slashed the ropes and uncuffed his handcuffs.
"What in the Hells is going on here?" Al asked in confusion.
"She came to me. I had a vision. The Goddess Lyri. I could tell she's angry at both of us." Arn said
Al cackled to himself devilishly, he readied his hands to choke Arn.
However before he could even attempt this homicide. He heard the same voice in his ear.
"If you hurt him. I will send you to hell." Lyri said
Al got up and said
"Well, looks like the Goddess herself demands we be partners."
"Looks like it." Arn replied
The two men shook hands.
"You're pretty good with revolvers. Takin down my old gang shouldn't be a problem." Al commented
Just then a buxom young woman in a red dress burst in.
"Oh sheriff, it's awful." She said
"What is it?" He asked as he ran over to her.
"The Donner boys. They've robbed the express and are using the mine as their hideout."
"What!"
Al loaded his revolver.
"Oh goodie. Some fun." He said
